--
"PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: River floodplains are integrative ecosystems in which diverse processes operate together to maintain river health. Floodplains are as critical to river health as the channel itself, yet floodplains lack the legal protections afforded to river channels in many countries.
KEY POINTS
• A river floodplain is an integrative physical, chemical, biological system and a key component of a river corridor
• Contemporary societal perceptions and regulatory frameworks do not reflect this scientific consensus...”
